Is anyone else not hungry in the morning before a session, but know that you need to choke something down or risk bonking? If so, what do you do to get yourself to eat?
This morning is case in point: I've been awake for over two hours, am about to start a TrainerRoad workout, but am still not hungry. In fact, the thought of making myself eat something is nauseating. I'm not a big sweets person, so trying to "lure" myself into eating a treat isn't motivating. Toast, cereal, oatmeal, yogurt, eggs, banana...it all sounds gross right now. Even forcing myself to drink some calories -- smoothie, carb drink, fruit juice -- sounds like a bad head/stomach ache (I've had coffee and water). It's like this every morning: need to eat to train -- not hungry -- forcing myself to eat feels disgusting, but I don't want to do every workout in a fasted state = stalemate.
Thoughts or suggestions?
